Congratulations to the football team and the netball team !
The netball team did a brilliant job everyone played extemely well , great team work by everyone you should be very pleased with yourselves and I am very proud of you all .

The netball team started the day off well with a 6-3 win against Brae which gave them a good start to the tourament . Dunrossness went on to win 3 more of their games , losing 2 and drawing one . The team came 3rd over all in their round of games . To decide on 5th or 6th place overall they had to play against Sandwick which was a very tightly fought game . There was some excellent passing and defending from Dunrossness . At full time it was a 2-2 draw so went to extra time with excellent team work from Dunrossness which led to the winning goal and a 5th place win .

I am so impressed with the team. Thank you Fiona for all the hard work you and Ruth have put in! It is great to see them all play so well together but they are also very encouraging and supportive of other teams.
